Lucy Brazier is a British writer, trying to live a quiet life in middle England. Now in her 40s, she has been writing since a very young age, which she finds annoyingly clichéd. She was inspired to try writing ‘properly’ in her teens after reading Oscar Wilde at school and his works remain a strong influence. Lucy also has a great passion for James Joyce and has written books on both Finnegans Wake and Ulysses. She would love to write her own post-modern stream-of-consciousness novel, but is far too introverted and polite.
Aside from writing, Lucy loves cricket, food (both the cooking and the eating of), tea, food, the city of Seville, naps and food again. Having written seven books, she says she is unlikely to write anymore, but probably will. Lucy is very small in real life.

If I may be so clumsy as my scars and bruises show, to which definition of “porter” — as I know of two — refer to your character Ma’am? 😀
These are the College Porters, the types found at Oxford & Cambridge. The keepers of the keys, never the carriers of bags. Not clumsy at all, few know more than the one type.
Ahh, how nice. Thank you for the kind explanation. I thought to my (twisted) brain… “Brain, is it possible to be a beer drinking assistant, delivering guest’s baggage & belongings to various rooms of an establishment in order to encourage a most engaging clever circus amongst patrons?”
Alas, this is a fine establishment nonetheless. And I think I will stay! 🙂
Fabulous, then! I welcome you most warmly my fine fellow!
I learned a new definition for porter. Always exciting 🙂
Yay! Learning is fun 😀
